A Children’s Sermon on Luke 6:17-26 — The Beatitudes

February 11, 2022 by Gary Neal Hansen Leave a Comment

children's sermon on Luke 6:17-26

As we come to the Sixth Sunday after the Epiphany, I bring you a children’s sermon on Luke 6:17-26. (You can find my regular Monday Meditation on this passage here.)  This passage lives in the shadow of the more famous version in Matthew’s Gospel. Luke’s emphasis is subtly different even with the Beatitudes as a […]

children's sermon on Luke 5:1-11

Miraculous Catch of Fish — James Tissot (public domain) Here’s a children’s sermon on Luke 5:1-11 for the 5th Sunday after Epiphany. I’ve written on it before. (You can find my regular Monday meditation on it here). But today it takes me by surprise. I’m so used to the way Matthew, Mark and John show […]

children's sermon on Luke 4:21-30

Here comes my children’s sermon on Luke 4:21-30. We pick up with the last verse from last week’s Gospel reading.  (You can find my regular Monday Meditation on this text here.) As I noted a week ago, this odd division by the lectioneers (is that what you call people who make a lectionary?) gives us […]

children's sermon on Luke 4:14-21

For the third Sunday after Epiphany, I offer you a children’s sermon on Luke 4:14-21. (You can see my regular Monday Meditation on this text here.)

children's sermon on John 2:1-11

For the Second Sunday after Epiphany, so I bring you a children’s sermon on John 2:1-11. It’s “the wedding at Cana.” (You can see my regular Monday Meditation on this text here.) I really love this text. I often use it when teaching groups St. Ignatius of Loyola’s “Prayer of the Senses.” (You can find […]
